You don't remember the CRX that was posted a while back where the OP was making his car go faster using cloroplast (sp?). Was it RealKyleH, or someone else. I remember that being an amusing thread (at least at the outset).

PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4 2000, 110,000 km, 2 portes, 4 pass., int. noir, 8 cyl., 6 cyl., manuelle, AWD, $19,500 au (###) ###-#### ########@msn.com.
RARE LIMITED EDITION- 2000 PORSCHE 911 CARRERA 4 ALL wheel drive MILLENNIUM EDITION. #601 of 911 made worldwide. As per Porsche records, there is only 901 left. In recognition of its unique place in motoring history, Porsche has created a special limited edition of the 911 to mark a unique moment. Inside and out, it's more individual, more exclusive, and more stunningly elegant than ever before. It also comes complete with almost all of the special equipment options available for the standard 911 range. Including four-wheel drive, unique exterior paintwork CHROMOFLAIR VIOLET COLOR, natural leather interior, dark burr maple trim, navigation system, Porsche built in radar , Communication Management and much more. This Porsche Millennium is a sport car in which every last detail is imbued with the spirit of individuality and elegance that has always been the hallmark of Porsche. It¿s a stunning Exotic Porsche and a great opportunity to own a Dream car.

Either the price is wrong, the car is in poo poo condition, or the bottom has really fallen out of the used-car market. If not... it makes me wish I had $20k lying around somewhere, as the car is worth more than twice that if it's in good condition (this is in Canadian money).

Edit: to see the ad, go to "autotrader.ca", select Quebec/english as your location, and then click on the link above (the site needs to set a cookie first, annoyingly enough)

Not out of the ordinary on an entry level bike.

I can't understand why anybody buys a 250cc new. Virtually everyone outgrows them in the first year and takes a loss, or tries to sell for way more than it is worth. 125cc bikes are even worse, virtually all of the ones I've seen in craigslist have 1-2 months of use on them and the asking price is RETAIL.
